What's Happening - August 31st & September 2nd

Posted on August 25th, 2021 by Ashley Robertson

Hey there Farm Fans!

First off - I just typed the word "September" and it made me a little giddy!

Second - I am beat!  I bet you are also feeling a little spent.  It's been a long, hot, smoky summer--and just moving around (and moving boxes of local produce) takes a whole lot of energy.  So - I am going to keep it super short and sweet with the update today!

Our breads for the week are: Banana Nut, Banana Chocolate Chip, and Good ol Banana

Our Coffee for the week is: Telegraph Blend - for more specific info about this coffee, check out last week's Farm Happenings

There is still time to get your tickets for the Cantaloupe Festival - come visit Fallon and celebrate our favorite melon!  Tickets are available HERE

Special Produce this week

Pioneer Farms: Baby Bear Pumpkins

Lattin Farms: Delicata Squash, Acorn & Carnival Squash, Tomatillos, Stripetti Squash, and Sugar Pie Pumpkins

Desert Farming Initiative: Salad Turnips!!!

The Egg Situation

Our egg supply has been severely diminished in the past few weeks.  I do not expect that this is going to be resolved anytime soon.  The ladies haven't been laying with the heat and the smoke AND I am down a producer entirely.  Every delivery, I have about half of the stock that I need to fill all of our subscriptions.  I have been TRYING to shuffle around who gets eggs and who gets shorted--I don't want any individual subscriber to miss out ALL the time.  That being said, this is a fairly arbitrary process and I will make mistakes.  I am ALWAYS happy to credit you for missed eggs, so please DO NOT HESITATE to let me know if you missed out on a dozen.

There are two options for all of our egg subscribers:  1. Take the gamble--anytime we short you, just shoot me a message and we will issue a credit to your account. 2. Cancel your egg subscription--we will refund you any deposit for which you have not received eggs.

Please let me know if you want to cancel your egg shares!

Hope you all have a great weekend and as always - Thank you for your support of Nevada Farmers!
